Sorry about not being clear, so now that the anime stops at an arc the manga scanlation for some reason has stopped for two months (Chinese scanlation ch53) or the mangaka is on break. Back on the anime probably have to wait until another ~ch 50s to get an anime, based on the conversations the anime is fast paced.

But there are no new chapters coming out. Scanlations? Or they are not yet released? By the way, does anyone knows the releasing period for this manga?

Scantalations stopped after volume 8 because it's licensed. The manga is not stopped. I've already read volume 9 which was just released last month, or was it two months ago? (But I'm not sure about chapter count). AFAIK, this manga is currently serialized in a monthly seinen magazine. Oh, I suggest further manga discussion or questions to be carried out in the manga thread.

Having watched Chu2 and this back to back, I feel that Btooom did a better job of the 'give enough closure to feel satisfied but have enough loose ends to keep open the possibility of a sequel' ending. Props to Madhouse for that.

Guys, please buy all of their merchandise so the anime will have its second season...

I was thinking the same thing. This series needs a second season!

Taira having a crisis..
Looks like everything that happened flipped a mental switch.
Never thought he would turn on them..
Lots of flashbacks in this episode.
In the end the one getting hurt the most was himself.
Himiko was having a self-sacrifice moment.
It was nice, but useless 'cause Sakamoto would never leave her.
Pretty sweet ending ^^

I'm just happy that Madhouse did not make an original end. But since v9 was released just a few months ago, and the anime covered all 8 volumes and even a small part of what was in v9 (ie. Ryouta x Himiko scene), it will be a long, long time before we get season 2, if any.
